Notes

Stated on center labels: - A Fractured Music • A Factory Record [rim text, top] - FOR • ML [Side A, ML refers to Martha Ladly, Peter Saville's then girlfriend] - 18/4/80 [Side B] The title for track B2 is neither given on sleeve, nor on center label. The speed for side A is 45 rpm and side B runs with 33 ⅓ rpm. This release here has the following characteristics: - the sleeve is semi glossy and has on rear a thin angled thumb-cut and straight glued flaps with rounded lower ends - the inside of the sleeve is brown - the vinyl is black, not translucent red or amber when held upon bright light, as some other versions - the vinyl hasn't a ribbed ring (gripper ridges) around the center labels, that most other versions have - the final number in the matrices is written horizontally and separated from the other etchings
